Grange 3 v Waverley 2 - Wednesday 27th November

We were all anxious to get started our first match of the season, but turning up 2 hours early for an 8pm fixture was going overboard. Thanks to the players for forgiving this little mishap on my part.

Dougie sadly retired with an injury just when he had the measure of a class opponent. Allan Wallace did amazing stuff against the cunning of Paul Osinski. Duncan had an awkward opponent in Mike Read and a very close run but lost 10-8 in the fifth. A big effort from Gavin, but Scott Tulloch, was too quick and so light on his feet. Ali G sneaked a game off Greg Nicolson, but trailed in the next 3, leaving us in 2nd place with 9 points to 19. Not a disaster seeing as Waverley 2 were division 2 last season, missing out by 1 point, and we have just moved up from division 4. We'll have them next half though... Pizza and jammy dodgers for tea, no complaints there.
